"We are excited to have Tahj join our staff," said head coach Dave Calloway. "He was a terrific player, who came out of the Shore, and went on to win a national championship. I think he is someone our younger players will be able to look up to for guidance and support."

"I am happy to be back home, with this great opportunity to be part of a solid program," added Holden. "I look forward to helping this program continue its winning tradition, in any way I can."

Prior to joining Monmouth, Holden was the Assistant Varsity Coach, as well as eighth grade basketball coach at La Jolla Country Day School in San Diego, California. While at La Jolla, Holden also served as the junior varsity coach in 2006-07.
